I'm so glad I found this site.. you are making it easy to learn all the things I have wanted to learn. I just wish I could go through all your tutorials in one day... but I will be going through each one of them as I have the time.

I just tried this using a 12 x 12 size and the same settings. I can't see a darn thing - did I use the right size? I had to triple the settings on the Noise and Blur to see any difference. Sizes this big are a big difference is what I'm used to and the proportions confuse me! lol

@Lisa Marie: The tutorial shows it being done on a 12x12 sized canvas. If you're screen is smaller though, you may not notice the effect as much. My screen is big enough that I can see a paper at 25%. But if you get smaller than that, it will definitely be less noticeable. Make sure you zoom in to see what's really going on.

Ah, so timely! I'm trying to hard to not say thank you for each and every tutorial I read over my lunchbreak today (specially when the last reply was 8-9 months ago!!!)... but this one, I have to say THANKS!!!!!
just what I needed to make a preview for my "working on" kit and extraction challenges!!! so happy! I could dance!!! (but I'd look silly dancing with no music, at work!)
